About this study

Official title: Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy After Nipple Sparing Mastectomy: Prospective Study

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) after nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM) is controversial. This study aims to investigate feasibility of SLNB with radioisotope method.

Read the detailed description

Volunteer patients who has underwent to NSM at least more than 6 months prior will be included to the study. Radioisotope will be injected via intradermal route to the breast underwent to NSM patients and lymphoscintigraphy images will be obtained to detect activity in axilla. If hot nodule is detected then it will be concluded that SLNB can be performed after NSM.

Being tested
Senti-Scint (99mTc- pertechnetate combined with human albumin)

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Senti-Scint (99mTc- pertechnetate combined with human albumin)Diagnostic test

    Senti-Scint will be injected via intradermal route to the breast with history of previous NSM.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Enhancement in axilla

    Hot nodules will be showed in axilla after injection of SENTI-SCINT

    Measured: 4 hours after injection

What does the primary outcome measure?

Enhancement in axilla (time frame: 4 hours after injection). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04140188, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
